ep 150 machine oil

[ChrisOlson]

hello



What benifits would I have if I added 5% EP 150 machine oil to my diesel fuel.



this is used oil that comes out of air compressors We pay 9. 00 a gallon to dispose of this pretty clean oil with very little contaminants.



would this oil provide lubricity in with the diesel to help lubricate my 2nd gen24 valve injection pump??



thoughts and concerns input always welcomed.



thanks

I'd be concerned whether EP150 is meant to burn. Whereas ashless 2-stroke oil is intended to be combusted, many other oils are not, and may leave nasty things behind when burned.

Besides, when you say "very little contaminants", what do you mean? It doesn't take many metal particles to abrasively kill your VP-44.
